Nehemiah definitely knew what God had called him to do, but he didn’t have a clue as to how or when God would pull it off. Many visions die in the interval or the time between what and how. We know what God has called us to do, but over time, not knowing how causes us to lower our sights, and shoot for a target that we have some hopes of hitting. We settle for a lesser vision that we think we can accomplish.
1. Did Moses come with the plan to get Israel out of Egypt? – To find A way to get them to cross the Red Sea?
2. Did Joshua come up with the plan to conquer Canaan, or to destroy The walls of Jericho?
3. Did David come up with the plan to remove backslidden Saul from the throne so that he could be King?
4. Was it left up to the disciples to figure out how to feed 5,000? People with 5 barley loaves and two small Blue Gills?
5. Was it left up to Paul or the Apostles how to grow the early Church with explosive and miraculous power? Or how to take the Gospel from Jerusalem to the Gentiles?
When God gives you a vision, he begins by working in your own heart to prepare you for the vision’s fulfillment. God not only knew how to secure Nehemiah’s release from service to the King, but he also knew how the financing of the project would be handled.
Let the God of heaven will give you success; and he helps you to arise and build for His glory.
God bless you abundantly and make you a blessing to so many across the globe.
